I was in two minds on whether to crop from the top to lose the 50/50 divide,but decided to keep it as shot.Taken last month at Brockholes Nature Reserve.

I can understand your dilemma!

I like the full image but I wonder what it would look like if you cropped at/just above the line of green bushes? The water reflection is just so lovely but I think it would lose something--context?--if you cropped too tightly to say, just above the waterbank...

With it divided in ½ horizontally the viewer does not know what your message is. You can crop about a 1/3rd off the top and make it about the reflection, or you can crop off about 1/3rd from the bottom and make it about the trees reflecting in the water.

I think the image is great as is. There is nothing wrong with the symmetry of a 50/50 split. Not everything is about thirds. Creativity is about NOT being hidebound by so-called "rules."
